For certain financial instruments, including accounts payable and accrued expenses, the carrying amounts approximate their fair values as of March 31, 2017 and December 31, 2016 because of their short-term nature. At March 31, 2017 and December 31, 2016, the carrying value of the Company’s debt approximated fair value, which was determined using Level 3 inputs, using market quotes from brokers and is based on current rates offered for similar debt (Note 5).
